If they even did it. This is over a screenshot of a spreadsheet, not the spreadsheet itself, making it even easier to fake if someone was out to get them in trouble. I could make a pic of a spreadsheet claiming to be by BrikoX and doublejay1999 with maybe a minute of work in MS Paint.

I’ve never seen “dufus” spelled that way before, it’s immediately enticing.- like you hybridized the word with “Rufus”.

Sexual aggression is illegal in the UK? That sounds pretty boring, ngl.

I don’t think you understand how insurance works.

The article you linked has at least 3 different kinds of socialism that satisfy “democratic” socialism:

Democratic socialists have promoted various different models of socialism and economics, ranging from market socialism, where socially owned enterprises operate in competitive markets and are self-managed by their workforce, to non-market participatory socialism based on decentralised economic planning.[127] Democratic socialism can also be committed to a decentralised form of economic planning where productive units are integrated into a single organisation and organised based on self-management.[22]

What definition do you mean by it?

Capitalism with a strong safety net sounds like you’re avoiding the question. The question is how to replace capitalism, not how to improve it.

How are you defining democratic socialism? Usually when I ask people to define socialism they answer with capitalism with extra undefined steps whereby the set of employees of a business is legally forced to be equal to that business’s set of owners. I’m not familiar with “democratic” as a modifier to the term, though.

Step 1: Think of a viable alternative.

No-one has yet achieved step 1, which makes subsequent steps harder. It’s easy to get your hands on people who will answer with magical thinking, but a system that will actually work and isn’t capitalism has yet to be invented.

Do you have to support all of a nation’s laws in order to support said nation? E.g. can you patriotically protest a law you think is unconstitutional?

Cities are trash now, this will only make them worse because corporations are stupid. The new process will look like this:

1. Buy plot of land.
2. Build business without adequate parking.
3. People park on the street, which will remain mysteriously legal but exacerbate the same disasters street parking already causes.
4. Even with that, parking is insufficient. Business goes belly-up, causing urban blight.
5. New investor goes to Step 1.

Chiropracty isn’t “scientific”.

We could always embrace capitalism by getting rid of corporations, like as a concept. They’re a fundamentally anti-capitalist idea.

That’s not true. You don’t have to ask someone to stop committing defamation before suing them for defamation.

Does it count as a tell when it’s irrelevant? Everything Trump says is a lie. You can tell he’s lying because his lips are moving. The addition of the word “Sir” doesn’t change anything.

It’s fine, provided it’s not a plot hole - i.e. your fantasy setting needs to not have abolished blindness as a realistic malady, which some settings do. E.g. LOTR 100% has blind people, while the Harry Potter universe only has very poor blind people, since solving blindness is as trivial as a polyjuice potion, even if nothing else works (and something more effective is bound to work).

The government can ban tobacco, but it’s undeniably tyrannical to ban a drug because you don’t like the consequences people are choosing for themselves.

He couldn’t remember if he did or not, is the joke.

The claim that hating the Israeli government is anti-Semitic is deeply anti-Semitic. Trump leveled the same core idea at Col. Alexander Vindman, that as a jew, his true loyalty must be to Israel. It’s an all too common anti-Semitic trope.

Speaking as someone who knows the definition (or more accurately, that there isn’t one), it is not a first amendment issue.

They do, in fact, have a legal leg to stand in. As shareholders, they can sue their board of directors for mismanagement.

Gerrymandering is legal, as is mentioned in the article. What’s not legal is racial gerrymandering. If all a court does is find a map to be gerrymandered, it won’t send it to anyone to be redrawn.
